Natives Challenge Slopestyle
Also billed as "Night Ski", but they really want the lovely snowboarders to come along too.
Pre-season fun at the Fat Face Night Ski / Natives Challenge Freestyle! Natives – the season workers’ website – have announced details of a massive pre-season event to be held at Xscape Castleford this autumn. An explosive night is promised as freestyle skiers and boarders hit the slope in a specially designed slopestyle course of kickers, rails and boxes. Action and snow are guaranteed as competitors fight it out for a massive prize purse, including £2000 in cash from title sponsor Fat Face. Fat Face team riders Andy David and Emma Lonsdale will be competing against the UK's top freestylers as they prepare for the new season. The event will be the finale of the Fat Face Night Series and will kick off the season as the first leg of the Natives Challenge series, which later moves to Meribel & Val d’Isere. The evening will also feature ‘Fat Hour’ – a free two hour open slope session open to anyone wanting to test their skills, pick up some tips from the Fat Face team riders, or simply to get some real snow practice in before the season. The ‘Fat Academy’ also means that beginners and lower intermediates will be able to take free ski lessons ahead of the oncoming season. Like all Natives events the Night Ski will end up with a massive party. As an official date on the Natives Show Love Tour, it will feature live DJs, crowd freebies and some serious partying! Numbers for the Slopestyle comp, Fat Hour and Fat Academy are all strictly limited.
